I've discovered Netjets 10 year plan!

[BentOver]

Saw my complete lack of a cooherent sentence with the first one....

"Oh, he did what had to be done!" Sounds much better.....


I'm not into politics though...Too many people listen to way too many "experts"!

I just remember those opposed to Obama were convinced that they were going to lose their rights to carry guns..

I'm not for either party, but remember guys telling me "You better go get a gun now before it's too late." First I have no need for a gun, and second, a President is not the sole manipulator of our amended rights in the constitution. A President can offer a bill, but he is not the judge and jury if that bill gets passed. (yes I took Poly Sci. too!)

Oh and THIRD...LEAVE FREAKIN POLITICS OUT OF THE COCKPIT!! I THOUGHT WE WERE ALL EXPERIENCED ENOUGH TO KNOW THE 2 BASIC RULES.. NO POLITICS or RELIGION... I had a guy try to convert me to Mormonism, and another guy talk 7 days about why he was for or against a particluar candidate..Yeah those were the days

Same with Obama not being a naturalized citizen. Really? Because Donald Trump says so it must be true. Forget the fact that being born in the US (Or overseas due to military family) is one of the main requirements of being president. Along with being 35. That's pretty much the only two real requirements.. I think someone would have looked into that well before he took office...

Like I said, I'm not for any particular party, but am astonished at those who will try to manipulate people just because they hate the other guy so much. Common sense goes along way..

OK off soapbox.

"I guess that's what you get bringing a utilities guy to a service business."

Not to be a complete dich, but please tell me you're not just realizing this!! You're about 2 years too late:beer:

Oh no, it's what I (and others) was saying two years ago.

Oh no, it's what I (and others) was saying two years ago.

The minute I saw a case of Dasani in the stock, I knew he didn't understand our business at all.

All we can do is keep undoing the damage Sokol caused.

But I (and other owners) got a letter from DS telling us that after a survey DASANI was the overwhelming choice of waters requested by NJ owners and that is why is was going on the planes.

HA! I can't believe he typed it with a straight face. Then again, I don't believe much of what he said.

I guess if you lumped "Dasani" and "I don't care; water is water" into the same category on the survey, I could see it passing. Barely!

I'm sure every single owner believed that one... The best way to piss me off is to lie to me. I can handle bad news, not lies.

Owners by definition are intelligent people. They can know that their company was hit hard in 2008. All that had to be said was, "I know this is potentially inconvenient, but in an effort to cut costs and shuffle money into another Berkshire Hathaway company, we have decided to use Dasani as our standard water stock. Feel free to order Fiji water if that is what you desire in your catering. Thank you for your understanding." Just don't blow sunshine up our owners asses. They are too smart for that.

Just watched a documentary on bottled water. It was a free stream on NetFlix if you have that sort of thing. The name was "Tapped".

If you watch it you'll never buy bottled water again. Obviously in a plane there is little choice, but you get my drift.

 

[Mach92]

Since were on the water thing yes everyone inside NJA said it was a bad move.

Now why not just break the contract........... well coke is owned by whom? They will wait it out but I'd bet VOSS will be on board soon.

"Since riots and uprisings are now en vogue the world over and with signs that they will soon reach the s************************* of America, would it be that much of a stretch to suggest President Obama’s election campaign would be willing to incite race riots in the hopes of guilting white Americans into casting a vote for a President who is progressively losing popularity and support at an ever accelerating rate?"

I rest my case... You're website may be legit??? But being a realist, I don't for one second think Obama and Co. is going to intentially incite race riots......Once your website posts articles like that it no longer garners any credibility!

Really? And that "education" should come from www.shtfplan.com? Specificallynfrom Mac Slavo's rants on shtfplan.com? You are WAY outside the bell curve of normal if you follow this guy.

I took the liberty of finding a repository of his works. Feel free to peruse and see if you can spot a general "America is Screwed unless we get my party in office" attitude.

[Semore Butts]

What do you talk about all tour?

Ok, I get titties and beer, but for how long? (I'm old, not dead! I can hang for a good length of time)

Guns! Great subject, that will take up a good amount of "leg" time.
(It always amazes me how much people that own guns enjoy the sport of shooting, yet a large majority do not hunt. Those that do not own guns generally go "ewww" guns are dangerous! (As they hurtle through the sky at 500 miles an hour in a tube)

Fishing and hunting? Thats a good one and safe for everybody!

Politics? Yeah, everybody has an opinion.

If you disagree with me then it's your chance to educate me.

Finances? Ugh! Where do I put my money? I'm receptive to any and all advice on that!
This is also a sensitive subject when you are flying with a junior FO that is probably just scraping by? (Back to the politics and finance subjects)

The 10 year plan? Who knows?

Take care, Semore

I don't care about that particular website. I just posted that one article to teach you about the Fast and Furious gun deal if you had not heard about it.

Obama is against guns and freedom. Don't ever doubt that.

 

[glasspilot]

I don't care about that particular website. I just posted that one article to teach you ...

And yet you posted it. You posted the far right rantings of a lunatic (most would say) from a small, little independent website with an agenda and offered that as an "education".

Just watched last nights "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart". It's a little more main stream and after all, Jon Stewart has in fact been voted Most Trusted Newscaster (Source).

Here is a link to the show. Just watch the first segment and then come back and tell me if you agree with the GOP stance on how to run this country. Namely, should we consider taxing more or not. I don't want to sway you, just watch the video and tell me what you think. It's one of his better pieces if you ask me.

I thought about starting a new thread for this but since it got brought up and nobody really has a "10 year plan" anyway I posted it.

Enough with crazy far right or far left arguments. The county is going to hell and I blame the right. I don't support able bodied folks living off the efforts of the rest of us, but the facts show that isn't the main problem.

Anyway, here are those links again:

This is exactly why I don't discuss politics in the cockpit or in general..... Like I said ...far too many people believe everything they read from any source and take it as the gospel....

I had a coworker recently tell me as a matter of fact, that Obama wasn't born in the USA...His source, Fox News and Donald Trump...The first is a broadcast that is severely against anything Democrat, the other is well...Donald Trump... It's always important to consider the source...

I don't care if that is true or not. It is AWESOME!!!

 

[CA1900]

Heh... I still remember when Stephen Colbert was on the Daily Show, and spouted off some completely ridiculous statement about somebody.

Stewart says, "Come on, that can't be true."

Colbert says, matter-of-factly, "It doesn't matter if it's true, Jon -- it's been widely reported!"

Wish I could find the clip. Pretty much sums up TV news these days.

Are you seriously claiming that The Daily Show's self-described "fake news" (on COMEDY Central) is a "mainstream" news source?! That's awesome!!

Jon Stewart, in his interview on Fox News Sunday (I also DVR Meet the Press and Face the Nation, so no need to accuse me of being a brainwashed Fox News acolyte) a couple months ago said "I'm a comedian first.". So you're getting your news from an ideologically-motivated comedian (his words), so good luck with that...

You should check out the FNS interview, it may change your opinion of the funny man because he comes across as a hot-headed prick...

 

[CA1900]

Plenty of my coworkers get their "news" from the hothead former host of Inside Edition. What's the difference?

:beer:

 

[BORG]

I'm no supporter of O'Reilly, so you won't see me defending him, other than to say he's not hiding behind the fact that he's just a comedian and peddling "fake news".

You may feel that Fox News is fake news, but it's pretty easy to PROVE that The Daily Show is.
